Bonus Scene: Off to Hiz Camp
Mr. Carr: I don’t appreciate you doing that in front of my kids.
Mrs. Carr: They’re infants. It was a quick kiss, I doubt they’ll be harmed by it.
Mr. Carr: You’re…well you’re both women. Isn’t kissing pretty much the limit of what you can do.
Mrs. Carr: Believe me, she can do a whole lot more. And it took a whole lot of will power to keep from going there months ago.
Mr. Carr: So is this why you called me here? To see this woman trying to play daddy to my kids?
Mrs. Carr: She’s not their daddy!
Mr. Carr: I know that, does she?
Mrs. Carr: Don’t critisize my girlfriend, because yours found out you were a liar and left you.
Mr. Carr: Whatever.
Mrs. Carr: I did not call you here to argue. I called here about your oldest. (sighs) This divorce is going to be hard, but I feel like most of the the kids are going to be okay as far as you’re concerned, they love you, no matter what. As for the babies, that’s going to be on you. You have every chance in the world with them, but don’t think you’re going to take Sophia away from them. She has a very special relationship with them that I will not let you take away.
But as for your oldest, your namesake, Francisco Jr., I don’t know if that relationship can be healed if you continue on in this fashion. He hate… well he doesn’t respect you.
Mr. Carr: And that’s my fault? You’re the one who always defaulted to his side everytime I tried to take some authority.
Mrs. Carr: Francisco Jr. is my first born and we started our lives together without you in the picture. We lived in that little one bedroom apartment and all we had was each other.
Mr. Carr: That was only till he was two.
Mrs. Carr: Still, he and I had a special mother/son connection from a very early age. And maybe I was wrong for letting it happen, but every time you weren’t there for us, for the other children we had after him, he decided to step up and be the man of the house. And after awhile, he stopped believing you could be there and that he was the only solid thing we had. I want him to believe in you, I’ve always wanted that. So, I want you to take him to hiz camp.
Mr. Carr: Hiz Camp?
(Mrs. Carr showed him a flier she’d gotten from a friend.)
Mrs. Carr: Here’s some information. I think the male bonding experience would be great for you.
Mr. Carr: This is actually… really intresting. Does he want to do this?
Francisco: No, dad, I don’t. But mom wants it. In fact, I’m all packed up. She wants me to go home with you and leave tommorow.
Mr. Carr: And you don’t want to?
Francisco: I think you’re no good for me or anybody in this house. She believes there’s hope for you as father, if not a husband. I’m going to prove to her that the best thing she can do for us is leave you alone.
